Kammenos Calls Glass Steagall; New Deal and Marshall Plan for Greece and Europe

December 10, 2013

An impassioned call for the implementation of Glass Steagall in Greece, Europe and the United States was delivered by a major opposition leader in an address before the Greek Parliament. This call was made on 8 December by Mr. Panos Kammenos, leader of the Independent Greeks, who had just returned from Washington where he spent a day meeting Congressmen calling for the restoration of Glass Steagall in the United States as the best way of aiding Greece and Europe. Mr. Kammenos’s speech was on the occasion of the Greek Government submission of the 2014 national budget which narrowly passed with a majority of only three votes.
